Smithsonian: Vaccines in the time of COVID-19: Vaccines and Society
07/14/2020
Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History presents:
Video Webinars – Outbreak: Epidemics in a Connected World
Part 4: Vaccines and Society
A broadly disseminated COVID-19 vaccine could help world populations reach a level of community immunity that would end the pandemic, but concerns over safety will undoubtedly contribute to some hesitancy to be vaccinated. Part 4 of Vaccines in the Time of COVID-19 will discuss the policy and societal conditions driving vaccine hesitancy.
Speaker: Sharon Kaufman, Professor Emerita and former Chair of the Department of Anthropology, History and Social Medicine at the University of California San Francisco
